Torquay

Have the wheels come off. Four defeats on the bounce since we knocked them out of the cup. The latest, a 5-1 reverse at home to Stockport.

Obviously they were promoted last year and began this season on the Crest of a wave ,full of confidence but are now struggling to keep up with the more established clubs. As we are all to well aware NLS standard players cannot cut it in the NL and they are now being ruthlessly found out. Stockport were also promoted last season but had a major overhaul of players close season and are slowly beginning to look more and more impressive. I think Torquay will just survive this year and maybe prosper more next season the same cannot he said of Wrexham where the wheels have really fell off. I am not sure if they are bottom yet but they must be close and their home attendances have crashed from 5500 at the start of the season to little more than 3000 now and that is a monumental fall especially on the income front.

They were right up there for a while but a number of poor boardroom decisions and frequent changes in management have fucked them up, something we know all too well. The supporters are boycotting home games, I am not sure that is the answer to any of the clubs problems in fact I am pretty sure it will just add to them.

Think we made a poor boardroom decision last year, but we seen it, ( too late mind ) but then corrected it. Fortunately I think we’ve kept the majority of our support. I also believe we’ll bounce straight back up and hopefully stay there

And for quite a few years before that. Perennial playoff bottlers before this season.

Another tonking on Boxing day says that you made a good call back in November and they are in definite frefall just 5 pts off relegation zone.
